Does a new computer stop working when I turn on AMD EXPO?
Does a new computer stop working when I turn on AMD EXPO?
First thing first: everything is working fine after I turned on the computer. It was a brand new build with no operating system installed yet, so that's normal.
After I started up for the very first time, my screen showed this message: "AMI BIOS welcome CPU installed, enter setup for configuration. CPU fan speed detection error, press F1 to enter setup."
I think the PC can't see the fan because I only connected one cable from the controller header of the case to the pump slot on the mainboard. Do I just plug it in like that? Or do I need to change something else?
In my BIOS menu, there is a setting called "ASMedia Storage Controller." What does this mean? Is it safe to turn this off? It looks like a SATA controller, but do I really need to keep it on?
I also plugged the fan controller cable from the case into a specific slot labeled "CHA_FAN5" on the motherboard. Does it matter which one I use? Should I put it in a different slot instead?
Now here is a big problem: after turning on and rebooting, my PC has been stuck for code 99 for several minutes. If it can't get running, do I have to reset the BIOS, clear the CMOS, and change voltage settings manually for the EXPO profile? The motherboard supports this feature, and the RAM also supports it, but why isn't it working? What should I do?
Hey Ram, I need your Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 kit because it's stuck. Can you tell me where the RAM slots are plugged into my board and if you've already checked those pins? My PC won't turn on at all after a restart, so maybe I have to clear the BIOS settings like resetting it. Also, in there, can you show me what version of the BIOS is currently installed?
Here is the Corsair RAM kit from Intel that uses an XMP setting. You can find it at this link: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/mem...-e...m2b6000z28
I need some help setting my RAM timing settings by hand. Do you have a few simple tips, just to set up an XMP on my AM5 board?
Your processor is set to handle up to 5600MHz when you have two pieces of RAM. If your RAM is rated at 6000MHz and the BIOS tries to push that speed, it could cause problems for the CPU. Check if your BIOS has a lower XMP setting or go straight down to 5600. Even with manual tweaks, maybe it just sticks to 5600 instead of hitting 6000.
Should I connect a CPU fan directly to my power supply? Should I use a water cooling loop for my graphics card instead of air cooling? And what exactly does the VRM stand for?
